Calculating entropy by Ma’s method for a system of k-mers on a square lattice

Random walk of rectangular particles on a square lattice leads to pattern formation when the hard-core interaction between is assumed. To estimate changes in entropy during this random walk, we propose modification Ma's method. The 2D sliding window technique was used divide system under consideration into subsystems. We "coincidence" method total number possible states for such In study, accuracy studied simple combinatory model, both experimentally and theoretically. determine which definition scheme greater accuracy. k-mers correlates well with obtained using "naive"
